LAKE CHARLES, La. (AP) - A 26-year-old man has died in a Louisiana jail. Authorities say they do not suspect foul play in the death of Dynell A. Dise, of Westlake.

The Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office said in a news release Monday that Dise’s body was found during a head count Sunday evening.

The statement did not say why he was in jail.



The sheriff’s office said deputies tried to revive Dise, who was pronounced dead by emergency medical personnel.

The parish coroner will determine cause of death.
